Indirect Emissions under CBAM
Understanding and quantifying indirect emissions from electricity use under CBAM.
Indirect Emissions under CBAM
Indirect emissions under CBAM relate to the electricity consumed in producing a covered good. Their treatment depends on the product category and the rules in force. For energy-intensive goods such as aluminium, indirect emissions can be substantial. Social Lab helps you capture the required electricity data.

Indirect Emissions under CBAM — questions we get
What are indirect emissions?
Emissions associated with the electricity consumed in producing a covered good.
Do they always apply?
Their inclusion depends on the product category and the current CBAM rules.
Why do they matter for aluminium?
Aluminium is highly electricity-intensive, so indirect emissions form a large share of its footprint.
